What’s Cooking During Snowmageddon

As I sit here on a Friday afternoon the snow is beginning to fall pretty quickly as the beginning of a predicted major snowstorm is upon us. I still don’t know why, but when a snowstorm is predicted the first thing I think about is what am I going to cook while the flakes fall. We already had a dinner party planned which is still going on as planned since all the attendees can walk. On top of that it is Super Bowl Sunday. Even without the snow it was going to be foodapolooza weekend.

I thought I would share what I will be cooking up, in the hopes you would share your weekend cooking and/or baking plans.

Saturday

Breakfast and lunch are always a toss up and depend on our mood. I’m thinking I may have to try out the French Toast Scone mix I got from King Arthur Flour. If I’m lucky and hubby is in the mood to cook, I may score a breakfast burrito.

The menu has an India theme for the dinner party. We are hosting so we are in charge of entree and appetizer and the other two families are bringing dessert and drinks. Here is our contribution:

• Appetizer: Indian-Spiced Roasted Chickpeas
• Entree: Chicken Curry with Basmati Rice
• Side: Homemade Naan and Cucumber-Mint Raita

I can’t wait to see what our friends are bringing for drinks and desserts.

Sunday

Breakfast will be something light since we will be eating early.

Early dinner will be Braciole with a veggie, to be determined. When the Super Bowl rolls around, we will pull out some chicken wings and other football appropriate goodies.

I’m not sure I will get any baking in, but I probably will end up whipping up a little something.

Now it is your turn. Tell me what you plan cooking or just eating this weekend.
